Photogenics 2.x was a complete rewrite and is a lot better than 1.2.

As is version 4.x over 2.x. Mostly in the way the interface works. Both versions are exellent grfx/paint packages. Version 4 is well worth the $80. ...at least it was when originally released. It's not a catchall program, more slatted towards 24bit digital painting instead of processing. A decent display card really is beneficial to the operation of the program.
I am unable to find a vt framestore loader/saver for photogenics. :(

$79 for an unsupported program is a bit steep, especially with no paper manual or program media. At the time of it's release, this was an awesome bargain. Got my 4.1 copy in 1999 at AmiWest. Our computer club did demos and sold copies for Paul Noland during the event and club members got special pricing. :)  Matter of fact, I still have the sales book from our club with names and serial numbers of the copies we sold at the event.

It annoys me that the (much newer) Windows version, which was $699 for so long, is now down to $79 (or A$99.60 according to the website here) yet the Amiga version is still full price.


Photogenics HDR
hmmm... Show the link to the HDR version for $79 and I'll purchase this product for my PC. I can only find it on the Idruna site for $399. And any mention or support of the Amiga version is no where to be found. This is a link I saved a few years ago for the Amiga version.

Maybe if there are a few of ya'll wanting to get the program but are hesitant at the $79 price, get together and make an offer to buy a number of copies at a reduced cost. Couldn't hurt to try, and if there is enough intrest from Amigas, [strike]they[/strike] Paul might offer it up at a discounted price.
